LBD From My TNT Simplicity 1803

I wanted a quick and easy to wear LBD. You know for those days when you do not want to think about getting dressed. The fabric is a basic black crepe (acquired from Fabric Mart ages ago).

This will be the third time I have come back to this pattern, Simplicity 1803. I really enjoy the neckline and sleeve. I had to shorten the torso quite a bit at the waistline and at the yoke to bodice seam.

Another bonus for this dress...pockets!

The only construction change this round was that I gave the pocket bags a quick stitch together just within the SA. This kept them from drooping and moving around by securing them towards the center front.
